LOOK: Electric Blue and Green Cut Crease + Tutorial

Okay, so this look was done completely out of the blue (haha get it?). I wanted to do something really dramatic but still keeping it bright and fun. I think with all the Halloween makeup look that people are doing, I've been feeling really inspired. It's been a while since I've done a bright and dramatic look like this so I had a lot of fun doing it! This kind of reminds me of a mermaid look but we'll leave that up for all of you to decide. I just decided to call it Electric since it's so vibrant. As always, I hope you all like this look and thanks for reading! :)

CONTEST ENTRY: Drag Queen

I decided to join Mimi's Drag Queen Contest!!!! I actually did this look around 2 in the morning since I was wide awake. But as soon as I got done with the look, I was exhausted!!!!!

It took me about an hour & a half to create the whole look PLUS take pictures. I spent more time trying to conceal my eyebrows but you can tell that I failed at that.

I also contoured/highlighted my cheeks, jaw line, chin & nose!! I wish my nose looked like that in real life. Amazing at what make-up can really do to yourself!!

Anywho, I looooooove the way my lips turned out. If you guys remember from one of my previous posts from a while back, I showed the many uses of MAC's Helium Pigment. Basically I did the same trick with my lips here just to give it more glam!

After seeing all the pictures and looking at myself in the mirror at the time, I was actually afraid to look at myself any longer. That just goes to show that I would never EVER shave off my eyebrows and put them in places they don't belong. For example, my forehead! No thank you!!


Haha anyway, I won't list down what I used, unless of course it's required for the contest but you could pretty much tell that I kept it pretty simple [in a dramatic sort of way]. Black & white eyeshadow, red blush, red lips, etc.

Good luck to all the rest who are joining the contest. [:

Mardi Gras Makeup Look

I don't usually enter contests because I'm not that confident with my work compared to a lot of you other talented ladies. But I decided to join Missxmai's contest because I knew this contest involves a lot creativity & a lot of color! So I thought I'd give it a try.
What do you ladies think? I hope you like it! I used a whole bunch of random stuff that I could find in my make-up drawers. LOL. I was mainly going for color so I just through on anything on my face. Even lipstick that didn't even go on my lips (;

Inspirational Look for Halloween!

I love HALLOWEEN. It's the only time of the year where you can walk out of your house looking like a complete skank and nobody will look at you weird. :P So as an Original Gangster like myself [just kidding].. I decided to do the "Smile Now Cry Later" clown face. Here's my inspiration..





What I used:
NYX "Milk" Jumbo Eyeshadow Pencil to create the shape around the mouth & eyes
NYX "Black Bean" Jumbo Eyeshadow Pencil to shape eyebrows, outline the mouth & eyes
MAC Smolder eye kohl to line eyes & outline lips & nose & to fill in triangles above & under eyes
MAC Rougette l/s [Mattene Collection] for lips & nose
Revlon Colorstay Liquid Eyeliner for tear drops & "my crazy life" criminal tattoo.



my happy "cry later" face. LOL.

FOTD: Black & Yellow

I'm at it again!! I should be studying for my exam for my Business Law class. But I just couldn't help myself from going over the top with this look. I've always wanted to attempt a look like this but I was never brave enough nor did I ever have the time. And since I'm out of school early today I thought I'd play with some makeup and go a little crazy.

If you wanna know what I used just let me know and I'll be more than happy to tell you. As for a tutorial, gosh I don't even know when's the next time I'll ever have time to do a look like this. I kinda just did this look as a spur of the moment type of thing. But I do know that there's a tutorial on YouTube very similar to it, except I think hers is a lot better than mine. Check it out http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=11lNsv-nOeM&feature=related
